Industrial Walnut Shells

Walnut Shell is used as a material to resolve lost circulation challenges prevalent in typical drilling operations; associated with stimulation fluid/drilling mud losses. Walnut shell is pumped into the well with the mud, this practice is intended to seal perforations to create a more secure and less permeable well environment. It is an easy and efficient solution without significantly altering the drilling fluid consistency. Additionally, walnut shell can be removed and/or recycled effortlessly.

Walnut Shell is used as an abrasive blast media similar to sand for cleaning, but without the negativities associated with other abrasive materials. In many typical cleaning applications the substrate is metal, fiberglass, wood, plastic or stone. Walnut shell can be utilized without scratching or pitting the substrate material / underlying surface. The walnut shell is ground to various sizes from coarse to extra fine depending on the application. Walnut shell does not cause silicosis, a harmful lung condition associated with the use of other blast media. Suggested Sizes are 8/12, 4/6, 12/20, 14/30, 18/40, 20/40, 40/60, 40/100.

Walnut Shell is used for the filtration of water. This is the best technology for the removal of oil and grease, as well as suspend solids from a variety of heavy oil and other oilfield produced water streams. Walnut shell is chemically inert, hard, resilient and perfect for oily water processing. Suggested Sizes are 6/10, 12/20, 35/60, 40/60.
